Changing Password


Changing the password for a user is only possible if the Spotfire Server is set up to use database authentication, that is, if the list of Spotfire users is residing on the server only. If the Spotfire Server is configured to connect to a company's Windows user directory, then user passwords are handled in that context.

To change a password:

  1. Enter a search expression in the search field and click the Search button to find the user whose password you want to edit.

  2. Select the user from the list below.

    Comment: If the resulting list contains more than 100 users, you can use the pagination controls at the bottom to view more users that match your search criteria.

  3. In the right hand pane, there is a field called Password. Click the Change Password button next to the field.

    Response: The Change password for 'user' dialog appears.

  4. Enter the new password in both the fields.

  5. Click OK.

    Response: The password is changed.
